tlooto Summary

Riboflavin−UVA‐induced collagen cross‐linking led to an increase in mechanical rigidity in porcine corneas and an even greater increase in human corneal rigidity, which can be explained by the relatively larger portion of the cornea being cross‐linked in the overall thinner human cornea.
